“We had a wonderful dining experience at Attraversiamo. The quality and taste of the food were outstanding—everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can really tell the vegetables are high quality and fresh, which made every dish stand out. The experience honestly reminded us of dining in Las Vegas with that elevated, fine-dining feel. I ordered the Al Fresca mocktail and it was incredibly refreshing. For my entrée, I had the hanger steak cooked medium, and it was perfectly prepared—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It’s great to have a restaurant with this level of fine dining right here in Brentwood. Definitely worth visiting if you’re looking for a high-quality dining experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I’m embarrassed to say that it took me this long to pop in and try out this amazing place. My business is literally one block over from theirs. But, as business owners, we tend to cut and run when our day is finally done. Anywho, this place is amazing! Such a warm atmosphere and the staff were fun and super helpful. Since I was a fish out of water, their staff went out of their way to show me what they had that I may like. That was awesome because I’m a pain in the butt! I don’t drink beer. At all… Never have… my hubby does and that’s all that matters and if they carry wine for me, which they do, I’m good too! We had a great time meeting with friends there. I will definitely frequent this place! You should too!”
“I'm tentatively writing this review because this is such a fabulous hidden gem. Excellence beer selection with a very knowledgeable staff and a solid kitchen. Great spot to watch the world cup!
Absolutely worth it to upgrade for the wavy chips. Great addition to any beer”
“Wontons and chili oil, beef or pork stirfry noodle (beef if you like spicier) almost all of their dishes with noodles you can order them as thin or as wide as you like. Given that there are so many options, it would be really hard to get bored. Also, secret hack if you get them; dip the beef roll into the chili oil sauce when you’re done with your wontons. So good.”

“I absolutely love this place! Tony is seriously so funny, but more importantly, he’s incredibly hospitable and has so much personality. He and his team never disappoint when it comes to service. Every time I come in, there’s just such a welcoming and fun energy.
I’ll admit, I usually don’t order sushi from restaurants that serve both Chinese food and sushi, but trust me when I say I was genuinely shocked by how fresh and delicious the sushi is here. I always get the sashimi combo, and the cuts are generous, fresh, and precisely cut. It’s not like some places that give you huge pieces of lower-quality fish and hope the portion size makes up for it. You can actually taste the quality here.
The Chinese menu is just as good. I honestly haven’t had a dish I didn’t like. They have dim sum and a huge variety of authentic Chinese dishes. The Mongolian beef, fried rice, and honey walnut prawns are sooo good!
They’re also open late and are always willing to accommodate requests whenever they can, which I really appreciate.
Hands down, this is my favorite restaurant in Brentwood for so many reasons. Great food, great service, great personalities, and there’s never a dull moment. I’ve never left disappointed or had anything less than an amazing meal. Highly recommend!”
“I visited Eight Acres for dinner and brunch and loved both experiences. The atmosphere is beautiful with an open, airy dining room upstairs, a speak easy vibe downstairs and views of the surrounding hills. The staff is very friendly and make you feel at home. Our favorite dish so far is the Blueberry French Toast at brunch. It has a light crust around the side that reminds me of a creme brulee crust. Highly recommend!”

“Finally made the 90-minute trek to Dave’s Hot Chicken with the fam! 🍗 The vibe was great—super friendly staff and a very clean spot despite the crowd. The chicken was fresh, hot, and delicious. Only downside was no cheese sticks today, but that just gives us an excuse to come back soon!”
“We always have such a great experience at Denny’s in Brentwood! Catherine is an amazing server; she’s always so friendly, attentive, and makes us feel genuinely welcome every time we come in. Ella, the manager, is wonderful as well and you can tell she really cares about her guests and the experience they have.
It’s rare to find a place where the service is consistently this good, but Catherine and Ella always go above and beyond. They’re a huge part of why we keep coming back. Thank you both for always taking such great care of us! 😊”
“I love Crumbl Cookies! 🍪 One of my favorite things is how they have different flavors every week. It’s always fun checking the weekly lineup and trying something new. The cookies are always fresh, soft, and delicious, and I love having something different to look forward to.”
“Picked up an extra large pepperoni pizza. Very good. I would say this pizza is a cross of Mountain Mike’s and round table with the best of both. Our pizza was perfectly done and some of the pepperonis had a little bit of char to them which was outstanding. Top-notch and will definitely go again.”

“this place does not have any table or chairs to sit and eat - it’s take out only. came here around noon on a saturday. it had steady foot traffic, but organized and quick for most. we waited about 15 minutes for pineapple buns, which was fine bc they were so fresh and delicious. i don’t remember everything we got but we got a lot of items for a good price, and all of it was good.
will be returning!”
“We stopped by later on a Friday evening around 9. Grabbed a mystery box for $10 and the Oreo something cookie. The service was great, the cookie was a work of art that we gladly destroyed since it was so delicious. I would say the only thing missing is seating inside but I know why there isn’t any and that’s ok. There are plenty of options outside now with the new renovations.”

“The weekend place to have a family meal. We go every week. Godzilla roll, mango roll (spicy), tonkatsu ramen for me and vegan ramen for my oldest. The bebe shares noodles and pork from my tonkatsu and even appreciates sushi at 4 yr.
Don't miss this local gem of great food and great service. I do think it is one of the better California restaurants for ramen and sushi. Good portions to avoid looking at 3 bits of food for double the price.
If you are inclined, definitely try the pork chop. Like butter on the palate.”

“Vic's is a Great local Steakhouse with much more than Steak! The staff is amazing, the food is delicious!”
“We had a fantastic dinner at Cap's. The food was great and the entrees came in very generous portions. The service was equally wonderful—our server was super friendly and had an impressive, in-depth knowledge of the menu.
As an expectant mother, looking for places to eat can sometimes feel a bit limited, but Cap's made it so easy to pick something delicious because they have a wide variety of great options. We left full and happy, and we'll definitely be back!”

“4 stars and not 5 purely because of the atmosphere inside. It’s very clean, there are just some boxes stacked around. The service was fast and very friendly! And the food was delicious! I had tonkatsu ramen and my boyfriend had seafood ramen. We both said it was 10/10! Would come back here again!”
“Came here with two friends and we all had a great experience! The food was fresh and delicious, and everything we ordered came out really well. The service was friendly and attentive without making us feel rushed.
All three of us enjoyed our meals and agreed we’d definitely come back. Great food, nice atmosphere, and overall a really enjoyable experience. Highly recommend!”
“I met up with my friend..we had an early dinner. The staff was great! Very attentive and personable. My only critique was the soy beans were over cooked and very mushy... seasoned well but over cooked. Its a quaint location, very clean and the layout of the restaurant really works. I definitely want to go back and take my husband and my mom. I also liked that they kept a water 🍶 on the table for self pouring. They have cute soy sauce dispensers on the tables and the tea 🍵 was delicious.”
“We tried 88 BaoBao for the first time tonight and was delightfully surprised. We’ve seen the place numerous times when shopping but only passed by. Tonight we needed a quick take out meal and decided to give 88 BaoBao. The food admittedly was better than we hoped for and deliciously so. We are definitely going back soon. Yum!”
“The food here is pretty good. I ordered the szechuan eggplant and the salt and pepper wings. They were very accommodating when I asked for no breading on the wings and the eggplant and wings were very good. I ordered 2 orders of the wings and only got flats, some drumsticks would’ve been nice. I’ve also noticed here in Cali that they never include white rice with the food whereas back home in Florida white rice always comes with your order.”
“We always have the same waitress she’s awesome and works her tail off.”
“The venue has a lot of potential. The lights being off is more of a negative than a positive. Can't really see what your doing depending on what activity you are partaking it. They are supposed to be open til 2am but put the chairs on the table starting at 10:30pm so they look closed for anyone looking from the outside. The drinks are a decent value and food was solid. Brentwood needs something like this but just needs to be reimagined a bit”

“Absolutely fantastic spot! The drinks here are consistently excellent—fresh, flavorful, and made with care. My first visit has been a great experience, and it’s clear the owner takes pride in both the quality of their beverages and their customer service. The atmosphere is welcoming, relaxing, and perfect for catching up with friends or simply enjoying a great drink. If you’re looking for a place with amazing drinks and friendly service, this is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended!”
“love this place! coffee is incredible! workers are so nice!!! i also tried this vegan mushroom drink i forgot what it’s called but it’s really good for your brain & sugar free with no caffeine & it was amazing! i had it iced it was really good! & they spelled my name right! unlike starbucks 😂 highly recommend this place it’s really affordable too! 💗”
“Very good vegetable omelet with hash browns and a side of fruit. My friend had an Arnold Palmer. Our waitress was very nice. My friend who was from out of town thought it had a great atmosphere and delicious food. My first time there and will go back. Try Dads Diner.”
“Went to Hannah Nicole Vineyards this past Sunday to celebrate a friend's birthday. It's free to bring the entire family! Kids are welcome, as long as they are well behaved and being monitored. No babysitting here, so make sure you and your offspring are respectful. Another plus is you can bring in your own food, fruit, dessert and non alcoholic drinks. Definitely be safe and bring water, and no one is questioning what in your Stanley... We had lawn games set up and everyone was excited and entertained. The grounds are beautiful and modern. If you come on a Sunday you may want to bring extra chairs to sit and relax. Pop ups are not allowed, but you can bring umbrellas or the kind that clip on to the back of a chair. Now for the wines, they are light and easy drinking. I'm a red wine drinker, but on this particular day it was 90 degrees and grabbed a bottle of the Viognier. Some in our group purchased the Rose and the Sauvignon Blanc which skew more on the dry side, which I prefer. However, if you like the tannins of the oak barrel, they have those options as well. Just go, hang out with the community and have fun!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“...so glad i finally stopped in here, i always drove by and kept meaning to. had the matcha latte and a mochi donut, both were really goed and the service was fast. the pasteries look amazing even if you just grab something to go. its definitely going to be my new spot when i need a quick treat or coffee on the way to work for sure.”
“Absolutely Best Pizza 🍕 in town by far. I cannot get enough of their products. Exceptional taste & service. Never had pizza as good. I wonder what their secret is that makes their pizza taste so good. Prices are also very reasonable and for the quality of the products they offer they should up their numbers - cannot be compared with any other traditional random pizza 🍕 places around. I’ll be back soon to try others!”
“Very cute shop. My daughter loves going in because the cat mascot is so cute and gets decorated. There are a lot of different flavor options, and I really like that you can adjust the level of sweetness. The variety of snacks offered is also nice if you’re wanting to spend a few hours to study or hang out.”
“If you’re feeling lost about where to grab breakfast today, this place is always a safe bet. Just make sure to arrive on time, as all the best bagels are sold out early.
The kids’ menu is decent, but the pizza bagel needs a lot of improvement, especially the amount of oil that drips from it.”
“My experience with Dino’s, my wallet fell out of my pocket inside the restaurant and I completely didn’t know. The owner, Dennis hand delivered to my address on my license and was extremely humble to not accept a reward only to “keep supporting Dino’s.” Dino’s has a customer for life. Thank you Dennis.”

“Definitely time for an update on my 2020 review. We have been back several times since our initial visit six years ago, and they must have really been having a bad night on our original trip. The food since then has been good, the prices fair, and the service has been excellent. We live close, so we almost always order for pick up, but the place looks nice and the folks eating in always seem to be enjoying themselves. I have to chalk it up to I caught them on a bad night. Once. We've been back 10-15 times since and they are 4 stars or above for sure.”
“I have been coming to Diggers for years, both Brentwood and Concord. I'm a sucker for an old school bacon cheeseburger and chili cheese fries. They have all kinds of shakes, burgers, and fries. Their breakfasts are pretty solid too. My wife and I came here a lot while dating, and now we bring our kids. Great place, I don't think they have a bad thing on their entire menu.”
“It’s late at night and you’re trying to get food for your family. Everyone wants pizza. You’re going back and forth on delivery or pickup because of the cost and the time. Then you start debating what kind of pizza to get, maybe half and half so everyone is happy. Usually what ends up changing your mind is the price shock. Every time I build a pizza somewhere else it ends up being over $50 with barely any sides, even when I choose pickup and skip the delivery fees.
If you’re like me, save yourself the headache and just start here and finish here. Pizza Guys has consistently had the best prices and the best deals. The staff at this location is always nice and welcoming. Every time I walk in they acknowledge me right away. They are clearly well staffed because the food comes out fast. I literally ordered on my phone, drove over, and about 15 minutes later everything was ready.
You know how you get home and realize you forgot cheese and peppers. Most places never remind you or act like it’s a hassle. Here, the person helping me asked right away if I needed anything else like cheese and peppers. It’s the small things that stand out.
On top of that, they don’t always advertise it, but my family’s dinner even came with a free 2 liter soda. How can you not like that. Whoever the owner is, they’re doing things right. This is definitely going to be one of our go to spots every time it’s pizza night.”
“Horrible experience. Came in on a Sunday morning to the Brentwood, CA location last weekend (5/10/23) it was only me and my boyfriend there. Had to wait until someone finally came out of the back to take our order, which took 5 minutes, took our order and we waited patiently 10 minutes for one small smoothie and a juice. We checked in on it but all 4 employees were in the back room just talking amongst themselves not making any orders, or coming out to let us know a timeline. There weren’t any doordash orders either or anyone picking anything up. So it was just ours to make. We asked again how it was coming along 15 minutes later and had to wave them down in the back and they brushed us off, to take 5 new peoples orders that had just come in instead of finishing ours. Then one of the female employees came out and asked to take our order -she didn’t know anything about our order we had been waiting for the entire time or what we were talking about. So we asked for a refund, thinking they’d give us the drinks for free after all of that, and they hadn’t even started making them and said we didn’t get the drinks and did not apologize for any of the inconvenience or lack of customer service. Super disappointed. Never going back.”
“Foods were 👌💯, chicken is crispy and flavor is great! Fried rice is the bomb! Spicy is definitely hot! There was a wait time but definitely worth the wait. Understandable because they just opened”
“Simply the best Mexican restaurant in the Bay Area. Their seafood is the 💣 bomb and their customer service is an A+…my whole family loves it.”

“When you ask for zero sugar make sure they know that you're allergic to high fructose corn syrup if you are because sometimes they get in a hurry and just hand you whatever but if you tell them that you really can't have it they will make sure you don't get it and they have more zero sugar options than most of the other restaurants as far as Beverages and and their food usually doesn't have it in there maybe one sauce does out of all of them but most of them are safe for people with diabetes or allergies that are sensitive to sugar”

“Absolutely fantastic experience at Fruitopia Fruit Bowls in downtown Brentwood! Kaylie made my visit truly memorable. From the moment I walked in, her great attitude and genuine warmth stood out. The customer service was awesome, attentive, friendly, and welcoming. What impressed me most was how knowledgeable she was about the products; she answered all my questions and helped me pick exactly what I was in the mood for.
Big kudos to the establishment, too. The location right next to the public library is genius! such a smart, convenient spot to grab something fresh. The variety is excellent, with a great healthy selection that makes it easy to feel good about what you’re ordering. My green juice was delicious.
If you’re in downtown Brentwood, do yourself a favor and stop by Fruitopia. Ask for Kaylie, you won’t be disappointed!”

“Great coffee, great service! I ordered sugar-free golden eagle iced coffee and a sausage slider. Food was really tasty and the coffee was spot on. No sugar-free weird after taste that can happen with some sugar free drinks. Service was quick and friendly and the outside was clean and well maintained..just wish they had a place to sit and enjoy my coffee. Great start to my day.”
“I’ve been a loyal Dutch customer since Oakley opened, and as good as the coffee has been it’s always been the people that made it so enjoyable. I wanna give a huge shout out to Emily, one of Brentwoods Broistas. While chatting the other day waiting on a drink I somehow brought up the time they messed up my “usual” drink and it was THE BEST THING EVER but I could never figure out what they did. Since then she made it her MISSION to make me that perfect drink and todays nomination nailed it! Brown sugar cinnamon, chocolate and caramel… tastes like a cinnamon teddy graham! So I hope you guys take care of your people because they’re definitely taking care of us! Give that girl a bonus!”

“I came here earlier today for lunch and it was honestly the best food and drink I have ever had, I ordered the popcorn chicken and it came out fast and it tasted so fresh and it was so hot and it was the best chicken I have ever had I would 10000% recommend it to anyone who comes here, the lady who helped was an absolute angel, she talked me through the menu and helped me decide on what to order, she was so polite and honestly she alone would be a reason to come again, she was the nicest worker and made me feel so welcome and was so patient with me, she shines brighter than anyone else, I will recommend this restaurant to everyone I know and I highly encourage everyone to come and try!”
“We went on a Tuesday night -
I picked up my guest from two different locations, from Berkely to Alemeda to Concord then straight to the restaurant's location in Brentwood.
Traffic was horrendous, 3 hours, but the company and conversation made it bearable. We arrived safe and ready to eat. Parking was great.
I gave a rate of 4-stars only because when we arrived there was a sign that Sushi will return in the spring and we didn't see anyone having hot pot, only Korean bbq. Don't get me wrong, the Korean bbq was fabulous with the condiments and service! We will definitely return when Sushi is back and try the hot pot.
The workers are very hospitable and honest as one of my guest discovered upon returning home that their wallet was missing. They had called the restaraunt the following day and the woman that served us that evening had found it under the table and had set it aside for us. Everything was accounted for. I highly recommend this honest and hard working establishment.”
“I'm always just stopping by this place, but I stopped ordered food and had a cocktail while I waited. It was a lot of little kids (toddlers too). Maybe they do family events or maybe trying to cultivate a family friendly environment, but mixed with cocktails? Anyone everything was good”
“Recommended. Good food, good service.”
